NTP and the need to create packet filter rules

Hello,
I have enabled NTP time function, adding Internal (Network) interface and DMZ (Network) interface. The clients was unable to syncronize with Astaro ntp server until I create these packetfilter rules:

From Internal (Network) to Internal (Address) NTP service.
From DMZ (Network) to DMZ (Address) NTP service.

So my question is: what is the meaning of "Allowed Networks" if I have to manually create packetfilter rules?

Thank you

  • Did anyone have any luck with this config on WinXP SP3?

    I'm getting errors:
    C:\>w32tm /resync
    Sending resync command to local computer...
    The computer did not resync because no time data was available.


    I used
    w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:"192.168.11.1,0x8" /syncfromflags:MANUAL /update


    Thanks,
    Barry

    w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:11.22.33.44,0x8 /syncfromflags:MANUAL
    net start w32time
    w32tm /resync
    net time /querysntp

    OR
    w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:11.22.33.44,0x8 /syncfromflags:MANUAL
    w32tm /config /update
    w32tm /resync
    net time /querysntp


    Tried the second on a WinXP VM and all commands return "successful"
